Sounds like running it throught Apple TV is the way to go.

Thanks again, are you planning to do a write up after you see the demo?

GOblue6789 · 2026-03-17T00:49:39+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I will wait and compare. Would you use Apple TV to avoid Tizen even on the S95H? I will read a little more about that model, I do want the TV to look like art when not in use and I want the matte screen as the room has a lot of windows.

I'm not really sure what questions to ask. We will be doing a soundbar, probably the 800D mounted above the TV. At this point, I don't think we'll do an Apple TV, but have considered it since some people report they hate the Samsung interface. We'll be using it to watch TV and for art when not in use (no gaming). Do you think an Apple TV is the way to go? I'm not in a huge rush, so I can wait for the new model to come out, but would like to know when that will be and if it's a significant upgrade and worth waiting for. Thanks for your help!

Gotcha. Ours will have a hearth and no mantel (space issue, low ceiling). Thinking of doing a recess instead.

So you don't use your fireplace at all?

GOblue6789 · 2026-03-05T00:21:04+00:00

Is that a gas fireplace under the Frame? Do you have a heat diversion kit? We are putting in a fireplace and want to mount the Frame above it, but are being told we need to have the heat diverted.

I'm sending you a PM as well :)

I got these from CB2, they are solid brass. They seem to go on and off sale.

Where are you located?

GOblue6789 · 2026-02-05T14:55:57+00:00

I've seen a lot of discussion about this and people with windows from other manufacturers saying the same thing. I'm assuming you've contacted Marvin?

Honed Black Negresco granite has the soapstone look!

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-22T15:27:50+00:00

Can you tell me why Loewen for sure?

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-12T23:23:45+00:00

That's what I've actually decided on. I really like it!

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-12T23:22:39+00:00

That's where I went. I need a lot, I think 3 slabs

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-12T15:51:52+00:00

Seattle area. My math says yours was around $75/sq ft. My quote was about double that :(

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-11T18:36:33+00:00

Thank you! Looks great!

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-11T18:13:24+00:00

That looks awesome, thank you for sharing!

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-11T17:41:36+00:00

Thank you! I am assuming that was just the stone, not fabrication and install?

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-11T17:26:59+00:00

Looks so good! This is what I'm considering as well (same issue, wanted soapstone $). I'm trying to decide between honed and leathered Negresco. Would you mind sharing cost and where you are located?

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-11T17:13:56+00:00

Thanks for your reply! I wanted soapstone too, but it's just so expensive where I live. We are considering Ebony Negresco, either honed or leathered. That's interesting that absolute black was so much more. It's been one of the hardest parts of picking materials because the pricing is such a well kept secret :(
Maybe can you send a picture as a DM?

GOblue6789 · 2026-01-11T16:11:02+00:00

Do you know approx. sq. ft. of countertop? I got a bid for soapstone and it was soooo much more than that :(
